A win against Gamrot puts him at the top again. Plus, no disrespect, but Gamrot is not a big knock out threat.
I don’t see how it is worrisome.

Ion Cutelaba, DEC
Tough fight to pick for me. Cutelaba is frustrating to watch sometimes with his fight IQ. He'll hurt you on the feet and be on the brink of a finish, and then start wrestling. He did against Nzechukwu and it cost him the fight, then he did it against Boser and it actually worked out in his favor. Both guys have the power to finish this fight and questionable chins. I think Cutelaba gets the better of Lins in the early exchanges, but his poor IQ allows Lins to survive and make it to the scorecards. Lins is a live dog here
Despaigne vs. Parisian
Robelis Despaigne, TKO, R1
Don't like picking a fighter with 4 professional fights and less than a full round of experience total in the cage, BUT Parisian is ass and Despaigne is dangerous soooo
Vergara vs. Almabaev
Asu Almabaev, DEC
Bad stylistic matchup for Vergera and good stylistic matchup for Assu. The UFC knows what it's doing here and you just have to trust the matchmakers. Taira showed the path to beating Vergara and Assu has the skillset to follow that blueprint. I think Vergara survives the relentless takedowns and submission attempts, but loses a dominant decision.
Wood vs. Moroz
Maryna Moroz, SUB, R1
Rematch with the same result as before. JoJo's ground game is still ass, and I don't think this one makes it to the judges.

The fight is close enough that simply focusing a bit more on one guy over the other you can make an argument that they won the fight, it's a highly subjective one.
Calling that fight a robbery is stretching the word to where it has no meaning any longer. It was super close.
